Abstract
The paper introduces a screen estimating calculator for the instructor actual
load (hours) in the Information Technology colleges and departments. The loads
of the two main instructor activities (teaching and service) are considered. The
introduced calculator is as other special screen estimating calculators can be
used to help in evaluation an approximate estimate of resources; here the
instructor time. The development of the instructor load calculator can be
classified as a simple software project. The values of the estimating
calculators rise from the parametric values that express the knowledge base of
the previous experiences. For this reason the proposed calculator here describe
an initial attempt from grouping the parameters of the instructor loads and
assign values to these parameters. The paper summarizes the analysis, design,
and implementation of the instructor load calculator using the capabilities of
visual programming a database management system.
